Anything about LOCI's or the like? Yet another day with no letter in the mail for me. Been "Waitlisted" since 5/11.smubound wrote:The waitlist letter was your typical letter. "Due to the high number of applications blah blah blah. If you don't want to stay on the waitlist, please email us.

Nothing really - it just means your deposit is non-refundable if you go to another law school. The only time you are precluded from going to another law school is if you initially select "binding early admission" during application.thiscyclesucks wrote:Barring the obvious...what does a "binding" deposit do?
How can a school lock you in based on a deposit?

Wow. Good for you. UT is more expensive for me. I just want to work in Austin, so I found it hard to care.art vandelay wrote:Somehow after scholarship considerations it is still cheaper for me to go to UT than SMU. Sort of unbelievable, given the fact that UT is a premier school. I was really looking to get back to Dallas for good, but apparently SMU didn't want me badly enough. Oh well. See you in 3 years, Dallas.
I highly doubt it. Most deposited at SMU a while back, and SMU doesn't seem like a school many attending would ditch (except for maybe UT), simply because of its location and the students that tend to gravitate to it. Movement on the list should correlate to the June 1st final deposit, and then be silent until the first week of classes. I wouldn't expect anything to really happen at all.thiscyclesucks wrote:Not like anyone has the answer...but, does anyone think there will be much activity on the SMU waitlist?

I've all but withdrawn, I have no real hope of myself getting in, but I'll stay on the waitlist (both there and at W&L/W&M) A) Because you never know, B) all 3 schools took nearly 8 months to get back to me, so waiting a bit longer doesn't hurt me any more, and C) if by some random chance I am admitted I'll have another option to attend, or exact sweet revenge by rejecting their feeble pick up line!
Keep the faith. Your numbers are great, and I'm pretty sure they'll need more high-LSAT students to boost the medians (especially for PT). I also had a C&F issue, but it turned out ok for me. Good luck!BigAristotle wrote:So, just got a missed call from a 214 (Dallas) number. Got super excited, decided to google it before I called back.

Mother fuckers.
